Hey TW! Let's see your knives!

Kershaw/Emerson CQC8-everyday carry
Kritzberg Weapons MFG custom Bowie-camp knife

 

I use a bench grinder with a paper wheel. I find it easy to use and easy to get a razor edge.

 

I was looking at that technique today on utube, It seem quick and easy. I think I saw the kit for $40.

 

I bought my harbor freight bench grinder and the paper wheel kit over ten years ago. I use it monthly and its still going strong.

 

A paper wheel/sanding belt takes some serious time to learn and lots of skill to work correctly. Amazing to see makers put the first edge on a knife.

 

Spyderco Sharpmaker. I can’t recommend it enough. I have sharpened many different knives on it (people at work bring me their knives to sharpen) and always been able to get a great edge. I suck with flat stones, but this thing makes it a breeze.

 

Yep, That’s the one I’m going to get. It gets great reviews.

 

Well this came today, I think this will put my leek in stand by mode for a while.

 

I have the same one. Super nice little knife. My only issue I have had is that it’s a little abrasive on my hand when I pass by it to get something out of my pocket.
It was some ridges on it on the back strap that gets me a bit.
Super sharp, love the size...I just can’t go jammin my hands in my pocket too quick.

 

Yea, I noticed right of the bat the girth of it compared to my Leek. Also the clip seems a little long even though it’s a deep carry clip. I think I’m going to call Benchmade and see if they have a shorter titanium deep carry clip they can send me.

Edit: I called Benchmade and there sending me a shorter titanium clip to replace the black clip.

 

I tried the Lansky. Had to watch YouTube for a few tricks and tips.

My Ace Biblio was impossible with any stone I own. That Lansky with diamonds got it done. My coworker won’t open my knife. He’s a bit clumsy and he felt the edge. It’s profoundly sharp.

I hope to get even more proficient with it. I’ll save it for the super steels.

 

finally...

 

Cleaned and lubed my Dad's Mini Crooked River for Father's Day.

 

Nice.

That knifes size shocks me every time I see one in persons. It’s huge.

 

This is actually the mini version so it's less shocking lol

 

That’s a gorgeous knife, It makes me want one! It’s profile reminds me of my old Buck110

 

Anybody have a good automatic knife?

I’m looking at the Kershaw launch.
It looks small but I kind of like it.

 

I've had this knife now for about 5 years and has probably been one of my favorites knives I've owned. I had this one before that until I lost it while riding an ATV.

 

I've had the SOG ST02 for a few years. No complaints. It sits low and isn't noticeable. It's used on a regular basis, so it's not as pretty as some

 

yeah it is. Definitely a modern take on the Buck 110. My first ever experience with a knife was a buck 110 so it has a special place in my life. When i saw this i knew i had to get one for my dad. Now i just gotta buy one for myself lol.
